2026 Mr. Football Watchlist (10/20)

🗞️ Headlines 📰

- Out Foxxed again!!! First it was Kade Goodin, now it's Timmy Emongo’s turn to ball out in defeat to Foxx Coons and Woodford County. Scott County's all-purpose star ran and received for 100+ yards each and scored three touchdowns, but the Cards weren't adequately dressed for “Jacket” weather. Coons is still a darkhorse at this point, but his play as of late merits recognition. He's thrown for over 500 yards with a TD/INT ratio of 9/0 in back to back wins over Collins and Scott County.

- I'm not sure if we've ever had a quarterback throw for 3,000 and run for 1,000 in the same season, but that rare air is just a week or two away. At the pace Goodin is on, 4,000/1,000 is also on the table.

- Level of competition aside, Ja'Hyde Brown is making a mockery of this sport. You knew he would see limited targets against Western. He touched the ball three times, covering 207 yards and scoring each time. He's aggressively running down the record for touchdown receptions, needing only two more to tie William Carrico's standard of 30.

- Zane Johnson accounted for four touchdowns (3 passing/1 running) against Eastern. He was picked off for just the sixth time since the beginning of last season.

- It's appropriate that he plays for the Broncos, because Dakari Talbert has been a workhorse lately. In his last two games, he's touched the ball 57 times for 570 yards from scrimmage and seven touchdowns against Male and Bryan Station.
